This is a card that I made for today's sketch challenge (CC222). I used today's new release from Our Daily Bread Designs-Love One Another. I wanted it to look elegant for either a wedding of a 50th Anniversary so I used the Ivory Prism Metallic Paper from ODBD, gold glossy paper from Paper Co. and gold glitter paper from K&Co. I thought a monochromatic card would add to it's elegance along with a variety of textures: dry embossing with Swiss Dots and the Textile folder, gold and ivory lace, gold cording, sheer ribbon, and pearls. I embossed the hearts in gold and layered them for a dimensional look.
I had a hard time capturing the shimmer and the gold since it is very dark and dismal here and I had to use flash. Sorry.
